Psychic Debris

My belief is that people have physical health challenges for one main reason -- it is that they re-live past experiences from their lives over and over again in their minds. Unfortunately, most people still have a negative emotional charge connected to these past experiences. This emotional charge, whether it is anger, fear, anxiety, etc., is experienced all over again, which creates what I call "Psychic Debris." I am not saying it is detrimental to have the emotions at the time of the experience, they happen for a reason. Normally you experience the emotion, process it (understand the reason for it), and release it. It is when the emotion is not processed, understood, and released in a timely matter that Psychic Debris occurs.

Psychic Debris eventually accumulates and creates blockages of your life force on all levels, but this type of Psychic Debris starts in your mental and emotional body. If it is not taken care of, it will eventually affect your physical body and illness and disease will develop.

When released during an Attunement, Psychic Debris can attach itself to you and/or linger in the room waiting to attach itself to somebody else or change future circumstances in a negative way. When Psychic Debris attaches to you or another person, negative emotional charges can be experienced as long as it stays attached and is not destroyed. This is why new Healers who do not protect themselves during a healing session sometimes feel drained, sick, and/or experience strange emotions to which they are unaccustomed, but as soon as they clear and balance themselves, they are back to normal.

When Psychic Debris in the mental or emotional body is released, you will develop clearer thinking and a deeper understanding of thoughts, feelings, and life circumstances. You will also be opened up to positive change. When blockages are released in your spiritual body, you will be able to reach a higher level of awareness and connection with your source. Once Psychic Debris is removed, the life force energy returns to its normal healthy flow. Dealing with Psychic Debris, however, is an ongoing daily process. The life experience presents new challenges every day that must be worked with and released so new debris does not accumulate. Ideally, once you are cleared, you continue to use Reiki to stay balanced and clear. Normally, if processed and released  in a timely manner, these emotions are not negative and are a part of the human experience, but when they are held onto by the conscious or unconscious mind and are not processed and released in a timely manner, they can accumulate in and around a person's body and that's when the emotions become negative. I am sure you have sensed or felt a stranger's anger, fear, or hate just by standing next to or walking by them. Maybe you have walked into an empty room and felt strange or maybe sensed a wave of stress, fear, or anger etc. This is Psychic Debris. Actually, when Psychic Debris is released during a Healing Attunement, it is a good thing and helps with the healing process. You just need to protect yourself from it.

Root Chakra

	Indicators of First Chakra Imbalances: Excessively timid Many insecurities, low self-esteem, depression Many tense, life threatening situations where a strong need for survival is called for Recipient of abuse or abuser of others Constipation/diarrhea and hemorrhoids
Responses:	Security, fear, survival, reproduction
Location:	Generally located between the anus and sex glands, however may be anywhere from the feet to the bottom of the spinal cord.
Governs:	Sex organs, elimination, the lymph system, the skeleton and bones, the lower extremities (legs, ankles, feet) and the nose.
Colors:	Red, Black and Brown
Scents:	Lavender, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Cedarwood
Gemstones:	Black Tourmaline, Garnet, Hematite, Obsidian, Black Onyx, Dark Ruby, Smoky Quartz, and Bloodstone Nuances: Black Tourmaline Fearful. Feel survival threatened. Negative. Exceedingly powerful for 1st Chakra work. Garnet Protective. Hematite Depression, pain. Keep people out of your space. Obsidian Extremely Protective. Release from excessive need for possessions. Ruby Protective of all around you, including family, possessions and good name. Smoky Quartz Help move energy from 1st Chakra upward to higher, more enlightened Chakras.
Petals:	Said to have four petals: Greatest joy, Natural pleasure, Controlling passion, and Concentration
Comments:	Problems with the First Chakra (Root) coincide with major traumas in the first 5 years of life, including an extremely difficult birth experience. These themes often recur around 30-34, 60-64 and 90-94. Were you severely upset during this period? Was your mother absent for a length of time due to illness? Were you abused or abandoned?  While most adults cannot remember these times, they "imprint" themselves in our psyche and are manifested as a disturbance in the First/Root Chakra which governs fear, survival and feelings of security. In your adult life, if you've been abused in any way or been an abuser of another--your First Chakra is likely out of balance. An First Chakra Imbalance may manifest as a person feeling extremely powerless, worthless, fearful, depressed and insecure. Since this Chakra rules our need to "survive", an out of balance Chakra may manifest as a desire to self-terminate. On the other hand, an imbalanced First Chakra may be expressed as over-aggression, a need to push others aside at all costs to obtain the security/self-worth necessary to feel more secure. An over-urgent need to bolster one's ego through possessions or by abusing another to feel more powerful within oneself. Physical symptoms of a First Chakra imbalance include frequent constipation/diarrhea and hemorrhoids.
Therapy:	Chakra Therapy might include laying the proper gemstone upon the First Chakra for 5-25 minutes. Some recommend placing the stones on the bottom of the feet. Black Tourmaline (Schorl) is considered one of the most potent First Chakra gems. Wearing Black Tourmaline has also proven to be quite effective, however it is highly recommended that internal work be done in conjunction with the wearing of the First Chakra gemstones. Imagine a red vortex of energy rising from the base of your feet, up your legs to pool at the base of your spinal cord, between the urethra and rectum area. At the same time, think of feeling secure, happy, powerful without being aggressive.
Mantras:	"There is nothing to fear but fear itself" "I welcome my life experience in all its ups and down, trials and triumphs"

Sacral Chakra

Indicators of Second Chakra Imbalances: Over-sexed, or sex addiction. Denial of sexual impulses, frigidity. Difficulty with intimacy in general.

Reproductive problems, disease of the gonads, ovaries and uterus Responses: Sexual, reproduction, pleasure Location: Located in the middle of the belly about 3 inches below the naval, at the front of the body.

Tiger Eye Balances male/female energies. Topaz Brings intellect into sexual desire. Petals: An Orange Flower with 6 petals. Comments: Problems with the Second Chakra (Sacral) coincide with major traumas between about 4 and 8 years of age. The focus of this chakra returns between 34 and 38 and again between 64 and 68. Did you undergo a major trauma in your life during this period? Were you abandoned? Did you parents divorce? Traumas during this time are reflected in our ability to be intimate with another human being, to give and receive sexual pleasure and provide comfort and allow ourselves to be comforted. Likewise, if you have unresolved issues related to sexual abuse or rape, your Sacral Chakra is likely unbalanced. An Second Chakra Imbalance may manifest as sexual frigidity, guilt, being cold, unapproachable and aloof. On the other hand, a Second Chakra Imbalance may be expressed as being over-sexed, using persons for sexual gratification alone, living a hedonistic lifestyle and battling sexual addictions. Physical symptoms of a Second Chakra imbalance include problems with the ovaries/testicles, impotence and lymph system problems. Therapy: Chakra Therapy would include laying the proper gemstone upon the Second Chakra for 5-25 minutes. Imagine an orange vortex of energy coming from the area between the pubic bone and the naval, emanating forward from your belly. At the same time, think of feeling intimate with another, feeling the warmth of their skin against yours. Imagine providing comfort and pleasure and being comforted and pleasured. Release all guilt relating to sex and realize that sexual intimacy is a natural part of a healthy lifestyle. Mantras: "I welcome intimacy as one of life's greatest pleasures" "Comforting another human being is one of the kindest things" "I welcome of the comfort of others in times of need"

If you've experienced a severe trauma between the ages of 8-12, 38-42 or 68-72, you may benefit from Third Chakra therapy. The Third Chakra is about power and abuse of power. Of will-power and lacking will-power. Were these stressful periods fraught with these issues? Do you feel guilt and regrets at how you handled these power struggles?  Persons with Third Chakras Imbalances may feel like powerless victims. They're unable to see they have choices and that the conditions of their life are due to their own choices. It's about taking back their power and asserting themselves to obtain the sort of life they desire. It's about assertiveness NOT aggression. An over-active Third Chakra may manifest as someone who exerts dominance and control over everyone in their sphere. They may tell them how to eat, how to dress and when things don't go the way they want, they revert to anger and rage. They may be easily irritated and quick to anger. Physical symptoms of an imbalanced Third Chakra include problems with the digestive system, including over-eating, diabetes, colon/intestinal problems and digestive problems related to stress.
Therapy:	Chakra Therapy might include laying the proper gemstone upon the Third Chakra for 5-25 minutes. You may find surrounding yourself with the Scents of the Third Chakra and/or wearing 3rd Chakra Gemstones helpful in doing Third Chakra work. Visualize a Yellow Vortex of light in the shape of a flower emanating from the upper abdominal region. Ask that the light release old pains and hurts and fill the place where the hurts were with joy and plenty. Let it expand, growing in power. Then close the petals and keep the power inside to be drawn upon as needed.
Mantras:	"I am the Master of my Fate" "I say yes or no according to my own desires as is my God given right"

Comments:	If you were traumatized between the ages of 16-21, 46-51 or 76-81, you may have an unbalanced Fifth Chakra.  The Fifth Chakra is about speaking to others in a kind and loving manner. It's about diplomacy, truth, integrity and our vocation. It's about feeling equal with others (not superior or inferior). Are you over-weight? Over-weight persons may find their Throat Chakra imbalance manifests as over-eating. People will often stuff food down their throats rather than risk open communication on risky or potentially painful issues--such as expressing their true feelings. Are you the quiet type? Who may go days without speaking more than a handful of words? Do you fear you'll put your foot in it? Say the wrong thing at the wrong time? So you don't speak at all? Or are you the type who needs to dominate conversations? Do you never stop talking? Do you deeply fear what might happen if you do stop talking?  If your speech puts others down (even in the most subtle ways), you may have a Fifth Chakra imbalance. Do people look afraid of you? Fear to confide in you? Fear to be alone and intimate with you? Do you find you never laugh? Or have you lost the ability to laugh? Do you lack a sense of humor? Or does your sense of humor inflict pain on others?  Do you hate noise, even music? Is your singing voice not as good as it used to be?  Are you obsessed with truth and integrity? Or conversely, often tell untruths or exaggerate the truth to make yourself feel superior?  This Chakra also rules the ability to communicate with spirits (Channeling) as well as Clair-audience (hearing spirits). If you'd like to promote those activities or be able to turn them "off", stones for this Chakra may help. Physical symptoms of an imbalanced Fifth Chakra may include problems with the Thyroid gland, ears (hearing included), eyes, sinuses, throat, teeth.
Therapy:	Chakra Therapy might include laying the proper gemstone upon the Fifth Chakra for 5-25 minutes. You may find surrounding yourself with the Scents of the Fifth Chakra helpful. Since this is the Chakra of music, you may find playing the music of your choice helpful when working with this Chakra. Visualize a Bright Light Blue Vortex of light in the shape of a flower emanating slightly upward from your throat. Visualize speaking to others in a kind and loving way and being spoken to in the same way. Imagine this Blue Light sending away all negativity, all feelings of superiority and untruths. When you feel cleansed, ask the Blue Light to bring in the ability to communicate in ways that draw persons to you, to bring in the abundant creative energy of the cosmos, telepathy, and intuition--pulling it in. Let the Light Blue Flower expand and grow in power. Then close the petals and keep the power inside to be drawn upon as needed.
Mantras:	"I am in the brotherhood of man, neither better nor worse than any man I meet." "I listen. I speak." "Om" (The familiar chant)

Third Eye / Brow Chakra

	Indicators of Sixth Chakra Imbalances:  Intellectual arrogance. Being surrounded by either "yes-men" or persons who fear you.  Inability to truly consider anyone's ideas but your own. Over-emphasis on material goods and wealth. Creating great ideas, but can't seem to follow through.  Making promises you can't keep. Friends and family exasperated because you never follow through.  Feeling as if you've never had an original idea.  Blaming others for anything that does not work out to your benefit. In so far as back stabbing friends, and blaming without their knowing. Living too extremes. Only in black and white.  Do you force your religious views on those around you, convinced you're the only one who is right? Or conversely, are you a complete atheist, without any spirituality in your life at all? Putting others down. Pointing out their flaws and snickering or gossiping maliciously. Disconnection from reality or becoming lost in a dream or imaginary world often from substance abuse which is used to artificially obtain the bliss associated with this Chakra. Nightmares, guilt, and sometimes hypersensitivity to psychic stimuli.
Responses:	Our spirit, extra sensory perception, meaning of life, inspiration, imagination.
Location:	The Brow
Governs:	Pineal gland
Colors:	Indigo Blue, Purple
Scents:	Hyacinth, Musk
Gemstones:	Lapis Lazuli, Amethyst, Sodalite, Sugilite, Purple Fluorite,Dumortierite, Blue Aventurine, Charoite, Tanzanite, Dark BlueKyanite Nuances: Lapis Lazuli Purifies the heart to make just decisions. Meditation support.  Amethyst Connects physical to spiritual and is useful in connections between the 6th & 7th Chakras. Sodalite Encourages truthfulness in emotion, self-esteem and trust.

Charoite Increasing awareness and insight. Tanzanite Bridge to the pureness of true spirituality Dark Blue Kyanite Said to align all Chakras and never need cleansing.
Petals:	A Indigo/Navy Flower said to have sixteen petals.
Comments:	If you were traumatized between the ages of 21-26, 51-56 or 81-86, you may have an unbalanced Sixth Chakra.  This is the Chakra of extra-sensory perception and it is said that many of us will never fully develop this Chakra and even fewer will be able to develop the 7th Chakra. The Sixth Chakra is about making dreams into reality. It's about visualizing what we want and making it happen. It's about our ability to "see", even to the extent we're given the "sight" or psychic abilities. It's about commanding others and using our power and resources with wisdom and intelligence. Its also about healing others--having thoughts so strong, you can send positive energy to another and bring about emotional and spiritual healing. What signals an imbalance of this Chakra? Well, if you must you be the smartest person in the room, for one? Do you appear to be compassionate--until someone disagrees with you? Then you turn on them with a combination of scorn and put-downs? Are people afraid of you? Do you like it that people kow-tow to you? Do you have an excessive need to control intellectual conversations? Do you take yourself too seriously?  Physical symptoms of an imbalanced Sixth Chakra include problems with the Thyroid gland, ears (hearing included), eyes, sinuses, brow, teeth.
Therapy:	Chakra Therapy would include laying the proper gemstone upon the Sixth Chakra for 5-25 minutes. You may find surrounding yourself with the Scents of the Sixth Chakra helpful. Visualize a Navy Blue Vortex of light in the shape of a flower emanating slightly upward from your Brow. Imagine the wisdom of the world entering the Blue Light--knowledge beyond what can be known, opening to the "Akashic" record or the record of all that is, will be or ever was. Feel a deep respect for all men, young, old, wise and unenlightened alike.
Mantras:	"I am in the brotherhood of man, neither better nor worse than any man I meet." "I respect everyone, including myself." "I forgive as I am forgiven." "I'm O.K. You're O.K."

Crown Chakra

	Indicators of Seventh Chakra Imbalances: Most of us will never activate this Chakra--few will even activate the 6th much less the 7th, however imbalances make take the form of feeling "haunted" or attracting unsavory spirits. A complete lack of conscience or spirituality. No grip on reality--living in a complete dream world.
Responses:	Redemption, The Divine, Karma, the Soul
Location:	The Top of the Head
Governs:	Pituitary Gland
Colors:	Violet, White
Scents:	Rose, Geranium, Violet
Gemstones:	Amethyst, Charoite, Clear Quartz, Sugilite Nuances: Amethyst  Connects physical to spiritual and is useful in connections between the 6th & 7th Chakras. Charoite  Increase awareness and help with surrender. Clear Quartz  Brings spiritual awareness in a material world. Sugilite  Wisdom (Extremely powerful).
Petals:	A thousand petals.
Comments:	This Chakra only awakens in the most enlightened and represents a desire to merge with the Divine and surrender completely to Divine Will. It is the highest evolution a soul can attain, and therefore very few of us will ever experience even glimmers of the energy of this Chakra. Only a few, very spiritually committed and or/angelic persons in history had fully activated Seventh Chakras. It is thought relinquishing the energies of the lower Chakra energies (i.e., sex drive and will) will allow the energy to flow upward into the Seventh Chakra and awaken it. Hence, the belief across many cultures that abstinence from Sex and Will can bring one closer to God. People with strong 7th Chakra Energy will often seek solitude, most often in nature. They will lose desire for sex and have left their will and ego behind them. While they are drawn to seclusion, persons are drawn to them like a magnet as if they sense their enlightened status. What signals an imbalance of this Chakra? To open the mind to the infinite with no grounding from the lower Chakras can mean a person loses touch with "reality". Some believe that our mental institutions hold many patients who have opened the gateway to heaven and lost their ways back to the physical world. Physical symptoms of an imbalanced Seventh Chakra may involve Pituitary Gland problems.
Therapy:	Chakra Therapy would include laying the proper gemstone upon the Seventh Chakra (crown of the head) for 5-25 minutes. You may find surrounding yourself with the Scents of the Seventh Chakra helpful during 7th Chakra work. Imagine a Bright White or Violet light in the shape of a flower emanating slightly upward from your Head. Visualize all men as one. Release the hold of the world's desires and possessions from your heart. Let yours troubles go and imagine your soul being one with God. Imagine this White/Violet Light carrying away all your worldly cares as it emanates upward, cleansing as it goes. Let the Flower expand and grow in power. Then close the petals and keep the power inside to be drawn upon as needed.
Mantras:	"I surrender my life to God's Will." "Give your troubles to God." "Let go and let God."
